BARNSTAPLE Town equalled a 22-year record this afternoon as they beat Longwell Green Sports at Mill Road. Not since the 1993-94 season had Barum won nine league games in a row. But thanks to a goal in each half from Aaron Harper-Penman and Dave Pearse, Barnstaple matched their previous best with another 2-0 victory. The result – which could have been larger had it not been for a resolute Longwell defence – also lifted Town above Bristol Manor Farm and into second in the...

Torrie themselves finished the campaign with a walkover as Salcombe cried off their fixture at Donnacroft. It was a disappointing way...
